Chapter 276: Going Underground

"Wait a second, timeout. Figure what out?" Li Yao asked in confusion, looking back and forth between Xiang Yu and the empress.

"The central continent is creating the demons and sending their disciples here to ’solve’ the problem, gaining heavenly merit and using it to increase their cultivation and talent. That’s how the central continent has always been above the others," Xiang Yu explained.

[That’s right,] the empress confirmed. [They’re probably also using an immortal level treasure to siphon the qi from the other continents and concentrate it into their continent,] she added.

Xiang Yu thought to himself that if they could go to such lengths to maintain their power, they probably didn’t want the other continents to develop strong and talented people. If that was the case, then Li Yao was probably going to be targeted.

He wondered if that was why that soul and body integration cultivator was here the day before. With Li Yao’s talent, they probably wanted to recruit her or get rid of her if she refused.

"That means they’re bad guys, right? Should I kill them if I come across them?" she asked.

Xiang Yu wondered how she came to such a conclusion. Those geniuses from the central continent were probably also accompanied by powerful guardians. There was no way they would let them walk around freely without any protection, especially in foreign territory.

"No need, let them be unless they provoke you," Xiang Yu spoke.

Li Yao nodded obediently. _{f(r)eew(e)bnovel.(c)o(m)}

"Besides, I’ll still be here with you, so don’t think about it too much," Xiang Yu spoke, seeing her lost in thought. He thought to himself that Li Yao was the kind of person to twist the words she received and make up her own interpretations.

"Ah, I see. Then I don’t have to think about it. I’ll just listen to senior brother," she said with a bright smile.

Xiang Yu had a strange expression.

[That’s right. Don’t try to think about anything, just listen to your senior brother and everything will be fine,] the empress spoke with relief. She thought to herself that luckily, Xiang Yu was here this time. Li Yao was more likely to listen to him, so she probably wouldn’t go rogue. And in case she fell into qi deviation like before, he could help her snap out of it.

"How long will you be gone for?" Xiang Yu asked.

[About a week will be fine,] the empress said.

"Alright, I’ll prepare meals and other resources," Xiang Yu said. "Also, bring the sword to the spirit vein so I can reinforce the runes."

Li Yao nodded and took out her void sword. It still didn’t have a scabbard. She lightly tapped on it, but it didn’t produce any sound. She then raised it and sliced slowly downward, cutting through space effortlessly like butter.

She then walked forward and appeared directly in the spirit vein. When she entered, she was mesmerized by the sight before her. There were more than five Xiang Yu’s walking around, each going about their individual tasks.

"So many senior brother..." she said in wonder, but her expression changed as she sensed that the true Xiang Yu wasn’t among them. She then turned around to look in the direction she had come from.
